Partnerships That Last

Many customers of Cannonball Logistics have been doing business with Cannonball Trucking for over 20 years. Excellent customer service, integrity, and value create natural long term partnerships with our customers.

About Cannonball Logistics

Cannonball Trucking was founded in 1964 and quickly became the preferred, asset based, expedited freight service in the Houston metropolitan area. Our first major victory was early in 1965 with the signing of the Tenneco Oil contract and it was here that we began to see a growing need for 24-hr service to the petro-chemical industry. Soon, companies such as Texaco, ConocoPhillips and Chevron were joining our team.

In 1985, Cannonball purchased a Certificate of Authority for Intra-State regulated shipments. Shortly thereafter, we applied for and were approved for Interstate shipments, thus, providing us and our customers much more flexibility in the types of services offered.

Customer demands change daily. You need a freight carrier that offers a wide variety of services that meet those changing demands. Cannonball understands that shipping programs must evolve at the speed of business.

In 2014, we recognized an opportunity for growth and to expand into a market previously untouched by Cannonball. We listened to our customers’ needs and created Cannonball Logistics, LLC. With the help of strategic and trusted business partners, Cannonball Logistics, our third party logistics division, can assist with your shipping needs to all 48 contiguous states, Canada and Mexico. Whether you want to move steel, lumber, chemicals or cars, from single shipments to custom programs, Cannonball has you covered.

For over 50 years, Cannonball has focused on meeting the demanding needs of our customers along the gulf coast. Our commitment to excellence in service, combined with a rock solid safety record, has ensured that Cannonball Trucking, and now Cannonball Logistics, remain the preferred full service transportation company in Houston and beyond. Family values, honesty, and straight forward business practices, have continued to strengthen the relationships with our customers. The result is a company where a hand shake is still worth as much as a legal contract.

Thank you again for the opportunity to serve you. We welcome you to the Cannonball family.
